Remaining primary agglomer-ates of NT not only increase the amount of filler needed for percolation, but also act as imperfections under mechanical stress. Therefore, in this investigation, the influence of surfactant type and its concentration, along with sonication treating time on sedimentation behavior of multi-walled carbon nanotubes was in-vestigated. To a greater extent, the influence of monomer composition, surface-active substances, and car-bon nanotubes on gelation and physicochemical properties of thermo- and pH-sensitive hydrogels and hy-drogel nanocomposites based on N-isopropylacrylamide with carbon nanotubes were investigated too.
